Products classified under HTS 8109.39.00.00
Zirconium Turnings
Fine shavings or turnings generated from machining zirconium bars or rods in aerospace manufacturing. Classified under HTS 8109.39.00.00 as zirconium waste and scrap, specifically 'other' forms excluding unwrought zirconium. This scrap material is collected for recycling into new zirconium products.
Zirconium Borings
Drill borings and chips from zirconium components used in nuclear reactor fabrication. This 'other' waste and scrap under HTS 8109.39.00.00 captures manufacturing residues not fitting specific wrought or unwrought categories. Recyclers melt these for ingot production.
Zirconium Machining Scrap
Mixed clippings, turnings, and filings from CNC machining of zirconium alloy parts for chemical processing equipment. HTS 8109.39.00.00 covers this 'other' category of zirconium waste and scrap from industrial fabrication. Ideal for remelting in secondary production.
Zirconium Filing Scrap
Fine filings from hand-finishing zirconium tubes for medical implants. As 'other' waste and scrap in HTS 8109.39.00.00, this captures small-particle residues from fabrication. High purity suits biomedical recycling.
Zirconium Clipping Waste
Sheared clippings from zirconium sheet stock used in heat exchanger production. Falls under HTS 8109.39.00.00 as other zirconium waste and scrap, distinct from unwrought or finished articles. Recovered for efficient material recovery.
Zirconium Grinding Swarf
Abrasive-laden swarf from surface grinding zirconium billets for turbine blades. HTS 8109.39.00.00 classifies this contaminated 'other' waste and scrap from precision machining. Requires cleaning before remelt.
Zirconium Reactor Scrap
Decommissioned scraps from zirconium cladding in nuclear fuel rods, categorized as other waste under HTS 8109.39.00.00. Low hafnium content makes it prime for reprocessing into fresh cladding. Strict radiological controls apply.
Zirconium EDM Wire Scrap
Spent wire remnants from electrical discharge machining of zirconium molds. As 'other' scrap in HTS 8109.39.00.00, this fine wire waste supports tool-and-die recycling. High value due to precision grade.
Zirconium Lathe Scrap
Continuous chips from lathe turning zirconium pump shafts for corrosive environments. HTS 8109.39.00.00 'other' waste and scrap includes these coiled residues. Excellent for direct arc remelt furnaces.
Zirconium Fabrication Dust
Collected dust from sanding and polishing zirconium anodes in electroplating lines. This fine particulate 'other' waste under HTS 8109.39.00.00 demands explosion-proof handling. Recycled via acid leaching.
Zirconium Mill Scale Scrap
Scale flakes from hot rolling zirconium strips for cladding. HTS 8109.39.00.00 other waste/scrap includes oxide layers separated during pickling. High recovery yield post-reduction.
Zirconium Tooling Scrap
Broken dies and punches from zirconium extrusion tooling. Classified as other waste and scrap HTS 8109.39.00.00 when no longer serviceable. Refractory properties aid forge recycling.
Zirconium Waterjet Scrap
Kerf scraps from abrasive waterjet cutting zirconium armor plate. 'Other' waste/scrap under HTS 8109.39.00.00 includes wet garnet-mixed edges. Defense-grade recovery.
Zirconium Plasma Cut Scrap
Dross and edge beads from plasma arc cutting zirconium heat shields. HTS 8109.39.00.00 other scrap captures oxidized cutting residues. Aerospace recycling staple.
Zirconium NDT Reject Scrap
Quality rejects from non-destructive testing of zirconium billets, fragmented for scrap. 'Other' category HTS 8109.39.00.00 for flawed semi-products. Full traceability maintained.
